In a statement to news outlets, doctors said that the clot "did not result in a stroke or neurological damage," and that Clinton "is making excellent progress and we are confident she will make a full recovery."

Clinton was admitted to New York Presbyterian Hospital Sunday for the blood clot, which follows her concussion earlier this month.

The illness was first reported December 10, when Clinton's office announced that it was the reason the Secretary of State had canceled a scheduled trip to the Middle East. On December 15, Clinton's doctors reported that she had also sustained a concussion after fainting from her illness.

Conservative pundits and bloggers have accused Clinton of faking the illness in order to avoid testifying in an open Congressional hearing about the Sept. 11 attacks on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.

On Sunday, Senator Joe Lieberman (I-CT) confirmed that Clinton will testify in front of congressional committees when she has recovered from her illness.
